The senator representing Delta Central in the 10th Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Senator Ede Dafinone, says he will take all the responsibility that goes with his office to deliver the dividends of democracy to the people of Delta Central.
This is just as he declared that he is a senator for all irrespective of choices of voters, while pouring encomiums on his campaign team at a church service in his honour.
The church service, held at Praise Baptist Church, Sapele, was the thanksgiving service of the senator’s victory at the poll, which was followed by a grand reception at the Sapele Atlantic Club, Sapele.
The presiding cleric, Rev. Godspower Iweh, in his message at the service, read from 1 Cor. 15: 9-10, saying: “I am who I am by His grace, if you want to thank God, you must acknowledge his Grace. One of the responses of Grace is to humble yourself. This is the conclusion of the matter, “Fear God”.
Speaking with journalists at the occasion, Sen. Dafinone said that the day belonged to members of his campaign team, leaders of All Progressives Congress (APC), saying that they worked tirelessly to achieve victory.
Dafinone said that he belonged to the Urhobo and to all in Delta Central Senatorial District irrespective of who voted for him or not, pointing out that his assignment was for the people of Delta Central and promised to be accessible.
“As I take up the assignment, I take all the responsibility that goes with it to deliver the dividends of democracy to the great people of Delta Central.
“I have the objective to touch and change the lives of many in Delta Central for the better as much as possible and will be accessible to all,” he stated.
Present at the occasion were HRM Maj. Gen. Felix Mujakperuo, HRM Okemute Onajita III, Ovie of Agbon; HRM Obukowho Monday Whisky, Ovie of Idjere Kingdom and others.
